Who ate all the (mince) Pies ?

Children (and Adults) too excited to sleepAll watching Mary Poppins on DVD ( that’s the disc, not Dick Van Dyke)Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-eyChim chim cher-ee!A sweep is as lucky, as lucky can beHerd noise outside.It’s only rain dear, said my wifeWent downstairs to investigateSomeone had eaten all the pies, drank the milk and niibbled at the carrot the children & I had left out for Santa

No presents under the tree thoughSo back to bed.....

a bit later, again during Mary Poppins, there was a long Coca Cola ad, featuring Santa..Ended with a magic whoosh, which I then realised wasn’t coming from the tvSo back downstairs to investigate, loads of presents under the main tree.Strange smell outside like the dear poo (Lion Poo) you can buy to put on the garden to dissuade cats. And tracks in the Snow. Sound of bells too !! It was actually the Comic Relief alarm on my phone, (the one with the red nose) I had set to put out the childrens’ presents early

Then I woke up, had it all been a dream ?Was I dreaming of a White Christmas ?Judging by the looks on the childrens’ faces later, it was no dream !!

“We are family”

Merry Christmas Everyone !

Have a Great Day.

And perhaps a thought as to why we celebrate Christmas.Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible said,Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.
